Review on Mastering Yarn Substitution: A Simple Guide to Pairing the Perfect Yarn with Any Knitting Pattern by Samantha Stevens

Revainrating 5 out of 5

There is a lot of information but I would like more.

I liked the book and the way it was organized (The Big Three, Fiber Content, Yarn Structure, Visual Effects, Classification, Substitution Process, Selection and Practice Patterns) but I couldn't help but love it See the Fiber Content and Other Fiber Types section for more information. I ended up ordering Book of Yarn hoping I would get what I wanted. (Details on yarn fibers, pros and cons, and the features they excel at.) I'm still waiting for the new book to come out, but this was a really good start.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • poorly thought out
